You point out the views of anti-gun folks while failing to note that all those loud & proud 2A advocates seem to be pretty happy with the current turn of events and not showing up at all as the government overreaches and repeatedly shits on the Constitution. I imagine there a quite a number of Don't Tread On Me gun lovers in ICE.
Congress is not powerless. They have ceded their powers over time. They have refused to stand up for their powers, especially under the Republicans, who could have voted to impeach but did not, who could still vote to impeach but will not. Why won't they? Because they are complicit. They have been working towards one-party domination for decades.
Yes, because clearly this administration is very interested in weeding out corruption rather than making most people's lives harder so that the wealthy can have even more wealth.

That's not the way governance works. Did you feel that way when the Democrats held all three branches and still the Republicans did everything in their power to break government? Trump won the presidency by a slim margin... the Senate Republicans represent fewer people than the Democrats do.

This comment makes you look willfully ignorant of the statements and actions of Republicans in power.
